History WMG / SWATKats

And they'll hire Samuel L. Jackson to be the voice of Commander Feral. It shall be AWESOME.

* Or it could be a SequelSeries where the Swat Kats have taken over the Enforcers after Feral has left (or got kicked out). Felina is the new commander with T-Bone and Razor in charge of a squadron that handles the same stuff they did back in the day, but with better equipment and a full array of support vehicles all done in the TurboKat's colors, of course. MerchandiseDriven isn't necessarily a bad thing.

* No matter how good you are, there is '''''no freaking way''''' a single competent person can run a government by herself. A single, relatively small school is already a bureaucratic nightmare in itself. A government for an entire mega-city would need to have an even more complex bureaucracy to run the place. The only way this theory could possibly work is if there is extremely intensive automation actually running the city, with a mayor and deputy-mayor only needed to keep the ultimate decision in the hands of non-machines[[note]]then again, given all the times robots and automated system appear in the series there may be something to the whole extensive automation of government idea[[/note]].
** I wasn't serious. I'm well aware that it takes a lot of people to run a city, and that the real reason the only people we see are Callie and Manx is because the animators couldn't be bothered drawing extraneous background civil servants. But I just thought the above Wild Mass Guess was an amusing idea. It was only a joke, and I never anticipated someone would actually take it at face value. However, having given it some thought, I'd like to revise my original theory and suggest that while more than just two people run Megakat City, the government is still understaffed. I need only reiterate that Callie is depicted performing a lot of menial tasks you wouldn't normally find a deputy mayor doing. This, to me, implies a lack of underlings and gofers due to a shortage of staff (but not an outright lack of it like I originally suggested), forcing Callie to tackle multiple jobs for Manx.[[note]]Of course, the probable real reason for this is the writers had no clue what a deputy mayor actually is or does, and assumed it was a glorified secretary[[/note]].

* Actually, they're on another planet entirely. The original plan for "When Strikes Mutilor" had [[spoiler: The aliens who originally owned the ship wearing spacesuits all the time, because Mutilor altered the atmosphere within the ship to be toxic to them. After the Swat Kats left, they would've re-stabilized the air supply and removed their helmets to reveal themselves to be Humans]].

* I thought that was outright said on the show? They mention a "Mega War" in the past and how Megakat City ITSELF won this war, so it's kind of obvious that Megakat City (and it's foreign equivalents) are liken to Greek city states. Also the city is freakin' enormous--it stretched across the horizon in every direction. It's easily Mega City One-sized at the very least, so being a nation onto itself is hardly outlandish.

Kind of like Sheriff Dollard's badge saying "Dullard" in ''[[{{ptitlezdr3zv9c}} To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar]]''. Steel(e) insisting on his correct name spelling in "The Wrath of Dark Kat" could be a nod to the fact everyone spells his name wrong with an "E" at the end, even on his nameplate. This would mean the spelling in "Enter the Madkat" isn't an error by the writers/animators but a joke about how the other characters can't spell Steel's name correctly.

The Turbokat is his Tardis. It's clearly bigger on the inside than the outside, which is why it can hold all those crazy missiles ''and'' vehicles. T-Bone is his companion, but that doesn't necessarily mean [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean anything...]]

That's why he was so insistent that he be the one to take him down.

Now, of course, this is just a narrative device to let Callie be present when the Pastmaster shows up so she can call our boys. But realistically speaking... why is she there [i]in-story[/i]? I know very little about politics, but I know enough that I'm pretty sure if Manx wanted a press release from a museum for whatever reason, he'd have media staff for that.

A FridgeHorror explanation for the blooper regarding the inconsistent amount of eyes on the monsters in "The Giant Bacteria" is that the third, two-eyed monster divided at some point, leaving a final monster out there somewhere.
